Well done. I knew you would manage it.
When I did my build-it-in-a-day version of this, I had a hairdryer to hand to help speed drying time up.

Re: Splash's Cromwell ***started***
Decals are on, the star as predicted was a problem but I'm now calling it totally finished, beauty shots in the morning when it get better light.
Thanks for all your support, I really have enjoyed this build and can thoroughly recommend this kit.
Let's hope Airfix bring out more tanks like this one.

Brilliant, Alan. Sorry I missed this one when it was live. I've got this same starter kit (for a fiver from Aldi) and I'm quite looking forward to building it now I've seen yours.

That's a cracker Alan! The base sets it off really well
Best wishes
